Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 183 - Advancing Demon Form

"You think...?" She asked slightly confused 

To this question, John simply nodded 

"What's that supposed to mean?" She asked 

"I'm not sure, more importantly, It's raining pretty heavily isn't it?" 

"Right...? It doesn't look like it'll calm down soon..." 

"Yeah... I Wonder how I'll get home..." 

"You don't have an umbrella?" She asked 

"Yeah, I forgot it at home again." 

[Again? Did I forget it before somewhere? Argh... I can't remember...] 

"T-Then, want to borrow mine?" She asked nervously 

[What's with this conversation...? It feels like... I've heard it before... If I remember correctly...] 

"And... And how will you get home?" John asked 

"I didn't think that far ahead... Oh!" 

"What?" John asked 

As she was about to suggest her idea, John also moved in to say what he had remembered. This resulted in them saying it at the same time 

"How about we share?" They asked 

"Wha- Hey... Are you..." 

Hearing those words made John get his hopes up, maybe he'd find out what or who he was 

"Am I...?" 

"A mind-reader?" 

"Eh?" 

"Ah.. You know, those people that appear on the internet who can read minds." She said as she raised her finger 

Hearing this, John snorted before he started to laugh 

"Pfft... Hahaha" 

"What?" She asked visibly embarrassed 

"You actually believe that?" John asked as he placed his hand in his stomach 

"Some of them are real! Just because you haven't seen them doesn't mean they're fake." 

"How do you know I haven't seen them?" John asked with a smile 

"We-well..." 

She couldn't think of anything, but despite that, she didn't show any signs of giving up 

"Either way, they're real, and I'll prove it to you." She declared 

"How?" 

"I'm not sure, but I will. You'll just have to wait to find out." She said with a self-satisfied smile 

"Sure, sure." 

"I don't like that tone... Just watch, you'll be mind-blown." 

"I believe you but we should probably start going home, the rain isn't showing any signs of weakening." 

"You really believe me?" She asked as she stared straight at him 

"Surprisingly I do, Just because you haven't seen something doesn't mean that it doesn't exist." 

[Just like the other world... What?] 

Once again, he said something that confused him 

Upon hearing this, Elena stared intently at him to see if he was being sarcastic again, but to this he simply stared back with a smile 

"Alright, Then, we'll research together." She said happily 

"Why am I the one who has to research when you when you're the one who said you'd prove it to me?" 

"If you don't, I won't let you use the umbrella." She said as she looked away 

"Isn't that a bit unfair?" 

"Take it or leave it." 

With no other choice, John decided to go along with it 

"Fine..." 

"Then, welcome." She said with a bright smile as stretched out her hand to him 

"Yeah... Thanks." He said with an expression of regret as he grabbed it 

In that instance, an image flashed through his mind along with the sound of a girl calling out to him. 

[John] Said the girl in the image 

The image was of a girl grabbing on to his hand after he offered it. 

[What was that?] John thought to himself 

"It's too late to take it back." She said 

"I know." Said John as he grabbed on to the umbrella for her 

She looked rather happy on their way to the gate, seeing it made him feel slightly relieved but he wasn't sure why, he also wasn't sure who that girl on the image was, but she felt important, like the sort of thing you'd never want to forget. It was on the tip of his tongue. 

[What was that?] 

------------------------------ 

As Master Sylvia's pattern was formed, John asked 

"For a human to learn 'that', I wonder what sort of experience you had to go through..." John asked 

Suddenly, Master Sylvia vanished without leaving a trace of darkness behind. 

She reappeared in front of John with a trace of darkness in the area where she appeared, and sent a kick straight down at his head. He avoided it by tilting his body to the side and in that instant 

He took four blows around his body before getting pushed back 

Master Sylvia vanished and reappeared behind him, sending a kick straight at him which he blocked, the instant he did, he felt 5 blows land on his chest with one of them being on his face 

Before he could recompose himself, Master Sylvia appeared in front of him, behind and then the sides, wherever he looked defenceless, she'd just appear there. 

She'd then either kick or punch him and despite him blocking it, he'd still get hit 

Master Sylvia disappeared and reappeared above him in order to finish him with this next attack, he already looked shaken up and off balance. 

She appeared above him and sent a kick straight down at him. 

Rather than blocking it he decided to avoid it. 

But the moment he tilted his body, He was suddenly slammed on to the ground. 

As he laid on the ground in confusion and pain, she reached out to his collar to grab it 

When she did a dark circle was formed in front of her blocking her from getting any closer, but that didn't stop her hand. It went past the circle breaking it as if it were glass in the process. 

"What's wrong?" Master Sylvia asked as she raised him up by the collar 

"Nothing, but you may have broke a bone or two." Said John as steam started to come out of it 

Seeing as how he was healing Master Sylvia was about to to slam him down in hopes of knocking him unconscious when all of the sudden he said 

"I've finally figured out your trick." He muttered as he appeared above her before swinging leg down in a kick 

Master Sylvia avoided it as she vanished in the last second. 

As she looked over at John, she felt her heart sink. His hair was longer, two horns were now poking out of his head and he seemed taller 

"Ah... I'm finally starting to feel like myself again" 

This happening could only mean one thing, John was about to be completely consumed.. Master Sylvia's unease grew by bounds.
